About The Founder

MEET THE OWNERS

Hi, I’m Miss Nicky, founder of DN Dance & DN Theatre in Edinburgh, which I run with my husband Lindsay.

As busy working parents of two young children, we know how valuable school holidays are. A chance to spend real, meaningful time together, but also a time that can quickly become difficult to plan.

That’s why we created the guide. A collection of our favourite family activities across Edinburgh to help you make the most of your time together, without the stress.

That’s exactly why we created our musical theatre holiday clubs!

For over 10 years, our holiday clubs have provided a perfect holiday solution for families. Packed with singing, acting, dance and crafts themed around the latest musical or movie, all leading to a show for parents at the end of the week.

It’s a space where children grow in confidence, learn skills, make friends, express themselves and have an incredible amount of fun. For parents, it offers complete peace of mind.

We would love to welcome your child and help make their holidays exciting, enriching and unforgettable.

Happy dancing,
Miss Nicky

"My daughter has recently taken part in the Wicked 2 theatre holiday camp, and she LOVED it. I was amazed at how much they managed to learn over the course of a few days for their performance on the Friday. I love that the kids also get involved in making the props so they can be creative. The teachers are so welcoming and accommodating. My daughter has a severe allergy and the staff have been brilliant at managing this and putting my mind at ease. My daughter is still singing the songs and doing the dances a week later, she had the best time."

"My daughter had a truly ‘wicked’ time at the DN dance holiday club - Wicked II themed. She just loved all the singing, acting, crafting and dancing. She came home every night with a smile on her face and singing all the songs she’d learnt. It’s so lovely to see the show at the end of the week and all the kids being little superstars. Staff were great and very enthusiastic & encouraging. The hours are good too as full days, we’ll definitely be back next school holiday’s. 10/10 from us."
